Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen sit proudly as the second best selling titles of the Game Boy Advance, surpassed only by Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire, and even keeping the well-loved Pokémon Emerald at bay in third place. FireRed and LeafGreen were very succesful one of the reasons for which being potentially that we finally had a fully translated English version of Green, which was originally only released in Japan.

When the games were first released they were bundled with the GBA Wireless adapter, which would mean players no longer needed Game Link Cables to trade.

But it doesn't stop there, quite a lot of changes have taken place, some minor some major, you can check them out at our Changes & New Features section. These were the first remakes of Pokemon games and follow the stories, characters and adventures of their original versions closely, whilst introducing greatly improved colourful graphics, sounds and functionality making good use of the power of the Game Boy Advance's then-new-technology.

Both games are based in the Kanto region, both games also feature non-legendary mascots Charizard for FireRed and Venusaur for LeafGreen, meaning these titles are the only games outside of Gen I that don't have legendary mascots. They count as Generation III, despite being remakes of popular Gen I titles Pokemon Red & Green.
